(Reuters) — President Omar Hassan al-Bashir said on Saturday Sudan’s next constitution would be “100 percent Islamic” to set an example for neighbouring countries, some of which have seen religious parties gain power after popular uprisings.

The secession of mostly non-Muslim South Sudan a year ago sparked predictions that Sudan, which hosted former al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden in the 1990s, would start implementing Islamic law more strictly.

In a speech to leaders of the mystical Islamic Sufi tradition in Khartoum, Bashir suggested Sudan’s new, post-secession constitution could help guide the region’s political transformation.

“We want to present a constitution that serves as a template to those around us. And our template is clear, a 100 percent Islamic constitution, without communism or secularism or Western (influences),” said Bashir.

“And we tell non-Muslims, nothing will preserve your rights except for Islamic sharia because it is just,” he said.

Already, floggings are a common punishment in Sudan for crimes like drinking alcohol and adultery.

Sentences of stoning are rare, although in May a Sudanese woman was sentenced to death by stoning for adultery, sparking condemnation from human rights lawyers. Similar sentences in the past have not been carried out.

Sounds like they are trying to out-Taliban the Taliban.

Welcome to Sudan – the ULTIMATE Islamic shithole! Hope they aren’t expecting any money from tourism.

Sure, nothing makes a solid societal structure like murdering people in cold blood for minor transgressions. Oh and think of the tourism and foreign investment it will draw! Why haven’t we done this everywhere??

Most things that end with ‘IST’ are socialist in nature. An Islamist government, without any shred of doubt, would certainly be a centrally-planned social and economic system. Any system that is “100 percent” anything is intolerant.

ISLAMIST IS A FORM OF SOCIALISM!

Every Dictator, every King, and every leader of his country who has “100 percent” control of everything, IS a central planner. The entire Islamist movement shares the very same political structure as Communism.

Islamism is Socialism with a central theme.

Same thing goes for nations that call themselves ‘Islamic Republic’.

A true republic has no preference, ‘Islamic’ or otherwise. The fact that a qualifier is added just contradicts the premise of individual freedom.

Another distortion ‘The People’s Republic of China’. This would imply that the central government is NOT in control of the country.

But worst of all has to be the ‘Democratic People’s Republic of Korea’ (North Korea). No further explanation needed.

Botox brain Hillary needs to rush over there and bow down at his feet. She needs to bring gifts of lots of American dollars and he might behave for a little while. It is a real dog and pony show Hillary village style.

It’s time to draw down our nuclear weapons by detonating the arsenal in every Muslim nation.Animals all.

“There are innumerable reports of government military units called the “Abu Tiera” rounding up innocent civilians using prepared execution lists, proof of intentional premeditation. The Sudan Armed Forces (SAF) are using a systematic policy of intimidation, rape, torture, and detention against women and children and the elderly. Genocide Watch has received reports that populated areas in the Nuba Mountains are subject to aerial bombings by the Sudan Air Force, followed by ground attacks.”
